    Does anyone know when Netflix Wave 3 might drop into Walmart Stores? I am thinking that Primal/Rattrap set may be the way to go, and just need to know when I should start building up anticipation, so I can be let down by not seeing them in stores.

    They haven't even officially revealed them yet. I'm sure the next Fan First Friday (which I'm thinking is next week) will reveal the Walmart and Target exclusives coming up as well as some other goodies.

    Rough estimate? May or August.

    That would be cool, gives a little time for budgeting, and second guessing. Thanks ORIO

    Just saw the 2nd wave of the reissue Headmasters the other day. Didn't click with me until now and just realized it. I had Highbrow in my hands. Didn't pick any of those out. Just picked up a lone Blackarachnia though.

    Found the Wave 2 of the Headmasters at the Rio Rancho Walmart last night, and a couple of Hardhead. Picked up a Weirdwolf, Skullcruncher, and a Hardhead. Still had 1 more Hardhead, Weirdwolf, Skullcruncher, and 2 Highbrow left around closing time. If I ever see any of the others or Highbrow again, I may pick them up. But those 3 have the most nostalgia for me and they do look way better than the TR versions. Man I love the retro packing.

    The 80's toys and cartoons were just the best. It just amazes me seeing these toys match up with what they were supposed to be like, based on my memories, animation, and the imagination of my childhood with their updated designs with modern articulation.

    While I am on the subject of cool retro shit, I think Hasbro should bring back GoBots as much as my wallet disagrees. I am not ashamed to say I had them, way easier to get than actual transformers back in the day. I can easily envision them at the core size class with same level of articulation and price point. Of course less articulation could just mean a cheaper price point, so...yeah!

    Picked up a netflix soundwave today. Looks like my local walmart just restocked them just today. There were 3 of him and 3 of prime. Was a bit worried that I would not see these again before wave 3 started showing up.

    thanks for Huffer and Ractonite! They’re dope!

    nope, but I rarely looked. I think I ordered it on Pulse? BBTS might have it, but I’m pretty sure it sold out everywhere.

    Not Transformers related but if anyone is interested in a Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank, there are four at the San Mateo Walmart.

    Thanks for letting me know about the Netflix Optimus. I am hoping that they would start showing up at Ross's and other discount stores if he was that scarce.
